At the bench

A little attention goes a long way.

    Share your usual hollow or tell us how the skates feel. We will help you choose.

  2. 02

    Inspect and sharpen

    We look at the steel, flag damage or extra work, and sharpen the agreed setup.

  3. 03

    Check and finish

    The edges are checked and finished by hand before your skates leave the bench.

A few useful answers

The details, if you need them.

You can book without knowing every technical term. We can talk through your setup at the shop.

Do I need to choose ROH or FBV before booking?

No. ROH is a traditional rounded hollow; FBV uses a different cut beneath the blade. Bring your current setup if you know it, or ask for help. Options and any extra cost are confirmed before sharpening.

Can I bring more than one pair?

Yes. Tell us the pair count when booking and allow time for edge condition and setup discussion. For a whole team or a large batch, coordinate with John first so we can plan the time and handoff.

Is profiling the same as sharpening?

Sharpening refreshes the edges. Profiling changes the shape of the steel that contacts the ice. They are separate services. Explore profiling.

Can I send my skates or steel?

Yes—contact us first to confirm the service and shipping arrangements. Work typically ships back out 24–72 hours after receipt, depending on workload. Transit and any wait for parts are additional. See mail-in details.

Sharpening for the whole team?

Send the pair count and next game date. John confirms the plan before you book a team batch.
